From Tokyopop:Bud quit baseball years ago as a form of protest against a father who he felt abandoned him. With little warning, Bud's parents divorced, and the father he had shared so many things with, especially baseball, moved out without so much as an explanation. A few months later, his father attempted suicide, regretting his actions and calling Bud's mother to come help him. But it was Bud who answered the phone, and arrived too late to save the man he once loved so dearly. Instead all Bud can do is hold his father as he dies waiting for an ambulance.

volume 2 and 3 will never be published... i´m really sad about this cause i liked the first volume. that´s the only baseball manga that´s published outside japan. (at least the only i found, but i really searched of it)
